Luminosity Masks ?

[BenB]

When in the local adjustment, there is a option indicated, next to the brush and erase tab, to use Luma, colours and intensity sliders.
I cannot figure out what they do and how to use them ?
Is this an equivalent to use luminosity masks ? But then how to apply them ?
Thanks for shining a light on those functions.

Any mask can be limited by luminance or color. If you want a basic luminance mask, do this:
1. Make a new brush mask
2. Click Fill
3. Go to the options area (looks like overlapping squares).
4. Move the luminance sliders.

There is a bug right now where the mask does not live update as you move the sliders. That will be fixed in the next release.

At some point, I may just add a mask that does that in one step, but that’s how you do it now.

Thanks Nik,
That helps.
